Ingredients
Preparation
- Add the cheese, garlic, and pine nuts to the work bowl fitted with the metal chopping blade. Process until roughly chopped, about 10 seconds. Add the herbs and salt; chop using 10 to 15 pulses. With the machine running, add the olive oil in a slow, steady stream through the feed tube, processing until combined and emulsified, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the work bowl. For a thinner consistency, process with additional oil or water.
- Transfer to a glass jar or airtight container; tap to remove air bubbles and even out the surface. Cover the surface directly with plastic wrap and refrigerate. The pesto will keep for 5 days in the refrigerator, or it may be frozen for up to 2 months.
